Phase | IM steps | Activities |
---|---|---|
I | Step 1 Conduct needs assessment | • Establish an intervention monitoring group • Perform a systematic literature review • Conduct a mixed-methods study into needs, beliefs & perceptions of patients with chronic kidney disease and care providers toward chronic kidney disease (self-management) and the use of eHealth (self-management) interventions |
II | Step 2 Identify outcomes, performance objectives, and determinants | • Formulate program outcomes • Specify performance objectives • Specify determinants of change • Map the performance objectives to the determinants and create a matrix of change objectives |
Step 3 Select theory-based methods and practical strategies | • Review potentially relevant theoretical methods • Match each determinant to the relevant method(s) • Translate methods into practical strategies to target each determinant • Monitoring group reaches consensus on methods and practical strategies | |
Step 4 Develop a tailored ‘Medical Dashboard’ based intervention (plan) | • Develop an intervention plan by tailoring the core components of the Dutch Medical Dashboard to the Chinese context • Member check with the target population | |
Step 5 Develop an adoption- and implementation plan | • Identify potential adopters and implementers • Specify program use outcomes and performance objectives • Specify determinants of change • Map the performance objectives to the determinants and create a matrix of change objectives • Design a plan for adoption and implementation • Member check with the target population | |
III | Step 6 Develop an intervention evaluation plan | • Specify the two-arm, hybrid 2 trial design and: -Develop the effectiveness evaluation plan -Develop the implementation evaluation plan |
